F$@$ the cable trannies.... See if you can find a hydro one. Also, buy the A1 swap, then trade that tranny to someone who bought an A2 swap for a 4th gen!!!! If you can find someone

I'm kinda interested in this too. I'm getting a 95 coupe its an auto, so i'm gonna do an auto to manual conversion. Is it worth the extra money to go hydro?? BTW Its gonna be a turbo b series. I heard hydro trannies are stronger, is this true???

there is no reason to spend money on a hydro tranny if your car is set up for a cable one. I have a y1 on a b18c and there is nothing wrong with it. save the money and put it toward other mods.
